+**Cache Support Added:**

+
+You need to:
+
+1. Create GeocodeCache model
+
+class CreateGeocodeCaches < ActiveRecord::Migration
+  def self.up
+    create_table :geocode_caches do |t|
+      t.string :address
+      t.float :lat
+      t.float :lng
+
+      t.timestamps
+    end
+    add_index :geocode_caches, :address
+  end
+
+  def self.down
+    drop_table :geocode_caches
+  end
+end
+
+
+2. And then add a method to this model
+
+class GeocodeCache < ActiveRecord::Base
+  def self.store address, lat, lng
+    GeocodeCache.create(:address=>address, :lat=>lat, :lng=>lng)
+  end
+end
+
+3. In environment.rb add the new cache geocoder to the front of your priority list so it will try the cache first (note: this assumes you are using the MultiCoder)
+
+GeoKit::Geocoders::provider_order = [:cache,:google,:yahoo]
+
+4. To invalidate the cache occasionally you can run something like this in a cron job (addresses shouldn't move very often)
+
+GeocodeCache.delete_all(["created_at < ?",2.months.ago]
